It's between him, Dunne and Pollock for best own goal. Pollock did one of the best ever but Dunney gets extra points for turning up to training pissed up a few times. Those were the days.
Thought the OP meant Goodison Park the other week at first

Had a soft spot for Wanchope, I was glad when we signed him from Derby.
But that being said, The Goat was the one for me. In my mind he was right up there with the likes of Inzaghi, Vieri, Salas.

Dunney. Probably biased as I'm Irish but I felt he always gave his all, great servant to the club. Always had a clanger in him but was always willing to take the risk.
Also SWP, was too good for us and hence off to Chelsea. There was a spell when he was just outstanding, always produced when on the ball, cracking goals and some great goals too.

The Goat, Ali B, Kinky, Rosler, Berkovic, Wanchope, Lake, Paul Stewart, Flitcroft and Anelka all contenders though. Oh and Joe Hart!

The Goat, Uwe, Andy Morrison (for being hard as nails), Ali Bernabia, Kinky, Danny Tiatto for being sent off every 15 seconds, that Danish bloke that scored a 40 yarder and George Weah obviously.
Paul Lake - What could have been. Read his autobiography absolutely heartbreaking.
(Uwe and Andy Morrisons books also well worth a read)

I heard a rumour that Morrison got a hiding from Wanchope whilst at City.

There was never a better time for Morrison to come in than when he did. We needed him just as much for his personality as him as a footballer.

Always had a soft spot for Bojinov.

Always had a soft spot for Bishop. Gutted when he left. As always, a piss poor deal even back then.
When we were in the third division, Goater and Morrison were great for us. As was Horlock, Wiekens and Weaver
